Voices In the darkness......

I wrote this long ago when I used to call chat lines. Like the "studio 55" in 218

I pick up the phone, calling the world of voices,
are they real?
Should I be scared?
Is this how the blind see the world?
with no touch,
no smell,
Nothing but sound?
Could they fall in love,
Could I?
What is truly from the heart,
smell?
touch?
sound?
Or just love......
Love of thought.
Love of the soul.
Love that reaches into your being and smiles.
Is that the same?
Or is it insane?
Is it fantasy?
Or is it real?

What is real?
Touch?
Smell?
Or thought?

I ask but once....Voices in the darkness....

Please...
Come into the light.
